module foo.bar;

import core.exception;
import std.stdio;

void main()
{
    try
    {
        assert(0);
    }
    catch (Throwable e)
    {
        writeln(e.file);
    }

    try
    {
        throw new Exception("");
    }
    catch (Throwable e)
    {
        writeln(e.file);
    }
}

$ rdmd test.d

foo.bar
test.d

The assert sets the 'file' field to the module name, whereas an Exception sets
it to the file name. This makes it hard to parse the file field in order to
produce error messages which can further be parsed by e.g. editors or IDE tools
(for example double-click on a unittest failure message could automatically
open a file, *if* the path is actually valid).

In my codebase even assert() itself is inconsistent with itself, I don't know
why. Sometimes it uses the module name, other times the file name. I guess the
best thing to do is use a wrapper which throws AssertError on its own until
this issue is fixed.
